My wife and I stayed at Gerd's place in Bangkok for about a week. The apartment is very new and clean. Huge bed, Huge TV and a Huge pool just 2 floors down. The room itself is not very large but it was just fine for what we needed. The sky train is about a 8 minute walk and there are plenty of cabs, restaurants and variety stores nearby. We had some trouble with the elevator card but Gerd came and straightened it out right away.
